Pokémon Heart Journey

Xiaozhi thought carefully about Sundae's words, then he let out a long sigh and said, "That's true. There's no point in me worrying about this kind of thing now. Let's talk about tomorrow's matter first."

Hearing Xiaozhi's words, Xiaoyang nodded and said, "Actually, the main reason I came here to find you is because of this matter."

Hearing their words, Shengdai also recalled what Mr. Du mentioned to them today.

At that time, Du said to them: "By the way, Xiaozhi, if I'm not mistaken, you should go to the Crimson City to challenge the gym leader there, right?"

When Xiaozhi heard what Du said, he was stunned, then nodded and said: "Yes, we are going to challenge the Crimson Gym next."

"If that's the case, I think you can just hold the gym match here, because tomorrow Aju, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Chengdu, will be here. He used to be the gym leader of the Light Red Gym, but because he became one of the Four Heavenly Kings, he has handed the gym over to his daughter Axing. But even so, he is still qualified to award the Challenger Badge. What do you think?"

"Mr. Aju of the Chengdu Four Heavenly Kings, is this true? Can we challenge the Four Heavenly Kings? I absolutely want to challenge them, please, Mr. Du."

End of memories

Xiao Yang couldn't help but look at Xiao Zhi helplessly and said, "I didn't expect you to agree so easily."

Sundae also nodded with a wry smile. Even the gym leaders were so powerful, let alone the Four Heavenly Kings. She was quite unsure now, but thinking back to how Satoshi looked when he heard that he could challenge the Four Heavenly Kings, she couldn't help but said with a hint of sarcasm: "Satoshi at that time was so excited as if he had won the lottery. You're so childish, I think I've only seen you like this before in class at school."

Xiaozhi scratched his head a little embarrassedly. Thinking about it carefully, he was indeed too excited at that time and agreed without Xiaoyang and the others' consent. However, he still said: "But they are the Four Heavenly Kings. There are not many opportunities to challenge the Four Heavenly Kings."

"That's true. There's no point thinking about it now. Let's think of a solution as soon as possible," said Sundae.

"Aju, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Chengdu, is a very powerful figure. Although it is in the form of a gym battle, he still should not be underestimated," Xiaoyang said.

Sundae also said: "According to the information I have obtained, the original Crimson Gym should have been the most powerful gym after the Changli Gym. Later, because Mr. Aju stepped down, he handed the gym over to his daughter Miss Axing. This caused the Crimson Gym to be ranked last among the eight gyms in Kanto. Originally, I thought this gym should be the easiest to pass."

Xiaozhi looked away embarrassedly, but still said: "But it's a rare opportunity, isn't it? The Four Heavenly Kings of Chengdu, I don't know how strong Mr. Aju is. I am very much looking forward to tomorrow's gym battle."

"Mr. Aju, to us, we are more than just the Four Heavenly Kings."

Hearing Xiaoyang's words, Xiaozhi couldn't help but look at him curiously. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes were full of questions. It was obvious that he was asking: In addition to the Four Heavenly Kings, does Mr. Aju have any other identities?

Xiao Yang looked at the other person and said, "Aju, you are the king of poison, and you are from a ninja family. I'm afraid your level of using poison is much stronger than that Hera."

"Poison type?"

After hearing Xiao Yang's words, Xiao Zhi frowned. The shadow that Hera had cast on him before was not ordinary. The poison type could be said to be the one that Xiao Zhi least wanted to face at the moment.

"We really should plan it carefully."

.........

The next day.

"You're finally here, Aju."

At this time, a man in blue ninja costume nodded to Du. He did not wear a forehead protector or a mask like traditional ninjas, but instead had a red scarf around his neck.

Aju said to Du: "I have studied the antidote and toxin you gave me. Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with the antidote."

Hearing what Aju said, Daigo, who was standing on the left side of Watari, couldn't help but say: "It seems that Hera is really too proud. He thought he could easily get rid of Satoshi and the others, but he didn't expect me to appear suddenly."

After hearing what Daigo said, Aju couldn't help but look at the three people standing behind Du and said, "I think you should be Xiaozhi, Xiaoyang and Sundae that Du mentioned to me. I have to say, young people really make heroes. If it weren't for you, everyone in the Pokémon Center might be in danger."

In response to Aju's praise, Xiaozhi shook his head and said, "No, I should be blamed for this. Hera's target was the GS ball in my hand. If it weren't for me, everyone wouldn't be involved..."

"How can this be all blamed on you, Xiaozhi?" At this moment, Daigo interrupted and said, "No matter what Hera's purpose is, you have indeed bought a lot of time and helped a lot of people. Not to mention that Team Rocket even sent out Hera for the GS Ball. That thing should not be given to the other party, otherwise who knows what terrible things they will do with the GS Ball."

Du also nodded and said, "Daigo is right, you don't need to blame yourself for this. In fact, the damage caused is not as great as you imagined. Most people were only slightly injured and no one died. Moreover, this time we caught the big fish Hera. You may not know how difficult it is to catch a cadre of Team Rocket. This time we actually made a big profit."

A-Ji, who had also fought with Team Rocket's leaders, nodded. Then he looked at Xiaozhi and the other two and said, "I heard from Du that you guys want to challenge the Crimson Gym next?"

After hearing what Aju said today, Xiaozhi couldn't help but said excitedly: "Yes, Mr. Aju, I heard from Mr. Du that we can challenge you directly. I wonder if it's possible..."

Seeing Xiaozhi's eager look, Aju couldn't help but smile and said, "Of course, the main reason I came here today, besides dealing with Hera's poison, is to challenge you."

Then, the other party's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were like a falcon, constantly flashing sharp light, "Well, I think you should all be ready? Although it is a gym battle, I will not show mercy, so you must be prepared."
